2. Drink loads of water
Water is needed for energy to be produced at a cellular level. Therefore it is imperative to stay hydrated throughout the day to maintain these energy levels. It is recommended if you're 60kgs you should drink 2L a day, and at 75kgs you should have an intake of 2.5L. When you don't drink enough water, you want to have enough energy.
3. Get good amounts of sleep
Sleep is crucial for the balance in our system. We know it is essential to get 8 hours sleep, which allows the body to rest from the day and ensure that energy is restored to tackle another day. Try leaving your phone in another room to make your sleep non-distractive.
4. Practise mindfulness
Energy is made by a chemical process and at a cellular level. However, the effectiveness of this process, to a degree, is run by your thoughts. By trying to have positive mental health and practising mindfulness, this will make you excited about things happening around you. The hormones produced by excitement are required for energy production, so if you are happy you should have increased energy!

These are vital for energy production and our metabolic pathways. So it is suggested that by adding extra supplements to your diet, your overall health will increase, as well as your energy levels.
